Source of interest in London, for example (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

capital

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'source of interest' is the first definition.
'capital' can be an answer for 'source' (I have seen 'source of profit' mean 'capital' so perhaps 'source' could also mean 'capital'). I'm not certain of the 'of interest' bit.

'london for example' is the second definition.
(London is an example)

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for capital that I've seen before include "Seed money" , "City - finance - very good" , "source of profit" , "Money saved or invested - seat of government" , "Cardiff, say" .)
